The StoryKit app has
four beautifully illustrated classic stories for young readers to use
as a launching point for their own creative writing skills. After
reading the books, kids can alter the stories to fit their own
narratives, or provide their own illustrations and pics. This app is a
favorite of many classroom teachers.

An
award-winning app to help your children hone their spelling skills. Make
as many words as you can from the seven letters on the chickens.
Clucking chickens encourage you, and squawk when you make a mistake.
This free version has 12 games. If you get stuck making words, give your
device a shake to shuffle the hens. The Android version is available on
the Android Market.
